Topping makes sense!

One word that stands out it the writer's use of "surgery" which it is not.

Also, even if there was some comfort to be gained for them, the part "this summer" implies that the top growth was removed just before summer or during summer.

Which means sunburn damage to tissue all over the exposed stems.

Even butchery should be postponed until like October.
 
Almost sounded like a joke...

Favorite line: "The problem was that if Gregor's cut back just that one limb the rest of the tree would look terrible...so they had to cut back the entire tree to that same height."
 
"But now there was another problem: the other trees wouldn't look right if there was one short one in the middle of the group. This meant that the other maples would have to be cut back as well...and that's exactly what they did!"

- only to be out-done by my favorite line...
- nice helmet, bud.
